My main..is mediatition (less effective)
Xanax on anxiety attacks, is "effective" works "supurb", but it only lasts 2 hours. Then you will have to redose, and you see Xanax is good "strong" tranquilizer, to me 2mg, i can still drive, because i feel "normal", not "anxiety, nervous wreck, where i'm road raging"
Dexedrine - in contrast, is dextroamphetamine which is a stimulant, this has a diffrent way of helping. It keeps the mind on track, and not "everywhere", and a overall feeling of "motivation", now if mistaken (my god, amphetamines are horrid if mistaken, or repeated doses, which is called abuse)
I've had to talk with my doctor completely and explain, how the medicine works, what i've done in the past with (Stimulants) which is well known, and i know it myself. But at least, confessing, and telling why...
Prozac.....i dont think i need any more antidepressants, i think they cause more "suicidal" thoughts, as a side effect. Yet they do help with "off-railed moods", if taken for a long time, they dont seem effective. Yet, Flouxtine (Prozac SSRI) is a potent antidepesssant.
Even if i...had to take "MAOI antidepessants" which are old old old, but i know there very effective, i dont know. I dont know how, because those Paranate, Marplan, Nardil, many others, have side effects that are bad. And i know people here have success with them, but, for me, life is a deep deep gloom, a black place.
Dexedrine itself, (more thinking, and motivation to get things done, rather than "happy", it just causes you to feel motivatied to do things, and have them done) That is only if the mind itself, wants to get things done.....if it doesnt there no reason for taking any stimulant.
Laying in Bed, and Visualizing a good place, get's the mind out of it's own blackness, it's called creative imagination, to benefit itself.
And self-awareness, knowing what your feeling, and having "inner compassion" to take care of yourself, benefits. I made it up....because therpist do not see through a boundery that is "forbidden" because i dont want anyone to see, the horrible, side feeling. I take care of it, using switching, and coming back to normal, statagize what makes you feel awful, then plan, and solve it, but it takes a long time.If you notice, alot of things in life are linked to thinking mathematically, logic. Emotions are a "gift".
just some imput...
